There’s certainly no shortage of ways to publish your own weblog — both hosted solutions and self-hosted. WordPress.com and Blogger are established, with large communities of users. So on first blush, it was easy for me to question why Squarespace would want to compete with them.

Squarespace handles everything for users — hosting, template design, and everything else necessary for a weblog — for a monthly fee that range from $8 to $50 a month.
